I don't think it's possible to enable logging at uninstall time from the control panel to a custom location for a very specific package. _As I understand it_ the control panel simply does the equivalent of
Msiexec.exe /x [productcode] That's it. Your only option is to enable logging for all installers *OR* uninstall from the command line. Edwin G.

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Logging while uninstalling from Control Panel Hi Pally, That's not what I am looking for. I have already done that search and I know how that works. I want to be able to create a log file during uninstallation only at a custom location with a custom file name. I don't want to enable logging for all the installers. I just want to log the uninstallation of my application. Using msiexec, I can do that using: Msiexec.exe /x [productcode] /l*v uninstall.log How can I achieve a similar behavior while uninstalling from Control Panel?

If so, how would I provide that log file name and location? Please advise.
